  • Patent number: 11808564
    Abstract: A calibration method for fringe projection systems based on plane mirrors. Firstly, two mirrors are placed behind the tested object. Through the reflection of mirrors, the camera can image the measured object from the front and other two perspectives, so as to obtain 360-degree two-dimensional information of the measured object. The projector projects three sets of phase-shifting fringe patterns with frequencies of 1, 8, and 64. The camera captures the fringe image to obtain an absolute phase map with a frequency of 64 by using the phase-shifting method and the temporal phase unwrapping algorithm. By using the calibration parameters between the projector and the camera, the absolute phase map can be converted into three-dimensional information of the measured object. Then, the mirror calibration is realized by capturing a set of 3D feature point pairs, so that the 3D information from different perspectives is transformed into a unified world coordinate system.

  • Publication number: 20230122985
    Abstract: The invention discloses a single-frame fringe pattern analysis method based on multi-scale generative adversarial network. A multi-scale generative adversarial neural network model is constructed and a comprehensive loss function is applied. Next, training data are collected to train the multi-scale generative adversarial network. During the prediction, a fringe pattern is fed into the trained multi-scale network where the generator outputs the sine term, cosine term, and the modulation image of the input pattern. Finally, the arctangent function is applied to compute the phase. When the network is trained, the parameters of the network do not need to manually tune during the calculation. Since the input of the neural network is only a single fringe pattern, the invention provides an efficient and high-precision phase calculation method for moving objects.
